lyrics

I’m sitting here in exile while the world passes me by
Ain’t no one here to laugh with, ain’t no one gonna see me cry
No arguments, no sentiments, no hellos and no goodbyes
I’m contemplating exile while this world slowly wanders by.

Got time on my hand to sit and wonder at the sky
A little blue, mostly cloud slowly ambles by
A cold wind blows from the west and I hear a bow break
Chase that sound here in exile ‘cause time will wait.

There’s a creekside spot in the forest where them river stones glow
Been there once long ago when my hair wasn’t snow
Might take an effort, but worth it, this memory unfolds
Better than sitting here in exile watching this world put on hold.

Be patient my friend and work out something on your own
Be aware be assured any mistake you make is yours and yours alone
That pride in yourself has a chance to grow by strides
While your tinkering here in exile waiting for a new world to come on by.

Wind whisper to me a tune almost forgotten
Now you’ve focused your eyes
It’s time to leave them open.

There’s a sigh of relief as mother earth renews her claim
She ain’t finger pointing, she’s much too wise to lay blame
But her expectations of us so clear for all to see
Just use this time here in exile to discover nothing here is free.
